MEMPHIS, Tenn.. November 1.—Six masked men held up westbound Rock Island passenger train No. +, known the Arkansas-Oklahoma express, midway between Memphis and Hurlburt, Ark., early this morning, ransacked mail pouches and fired seven nitroglycerin caps into the “local” safe of the express car, which not only tore away the safe doors, but wrecked the car. In the midst of their pillage they were frightened away when a switch engine, searching for the overdue train, approached from Hurl- burt. The robbers boarded the train when it slowed down near Hurlburt, eleven miles from Memphis. Intimidating the engine crew by a display of weapons, the men forced the engineer to back the train several miles. Robbed Cars Detached. Then the express ind mail cars were cut from the coaches and hauled ahead a short distance, where the half completed robbery was executed. In the meantime other members of the train crew as well as express messengers and mail clerks were brought to submission by the rob- bers. When the detached cars were brought to a standstill each of the men set about a certain task. ne began gathering registered mail and another to set the charge of explosive in the safe, while others stood guard over the train crew and the passenger coaches. The robber having charge of the express car selected the larger of the two safes for his at- tack. This one, it happened, contained only the less valuable packages. Sides of Car Blown Out. When the charge was fired the ends and sides of the car were splintered and the entire front of the safe blown away. Just at this point In the hold-up the switch engine steamed into sight and the robbers took to their heels with only what they could hastily grab as a reward for their daring. It is believed that what they ‘got was of comparatively little value. 2 Cracked the Wrong Safe. | CHICAGO, November 1.—F. 0. Melcher, vice president of the Rock Island road, sald that, so far as he could learn, the robbers got nothing but the registered mail, and that the safe blown open was practically empty. AM the valuables were in the small safe in the combination car, which ‘was not attacked. t The passengers were not molested, ex- cept the ones who ventured too close to where the robbers were at work. These were warned away by rifle shots. JOHN D. LEE TO AID | INRICHESON DEFENSE Lynchburg Lawyer Goes to MANILA.
